The End of Magic
In this chapterThe party defeats Kefka, and with his death magic and Espers vanish.
After Kefka's defeat the Espers and magic fade from the world. Terra is expected to disappear too, but her human side keeps her alive. The party escapes as the tower collapses. The final scene shows the world recovering. The party watches green return to the land, and the credits show each character's future.
The ending is bittersweet. The loss of magic is a loss of wonder, but it is also the end of a destructive power. Terra's survival confirms the theme: love and humanity are stronger than power. She chooses to live as a person. The credits sequence is one of the best in the series, summarising the story in a long, moving montage.
